The city is practically- in ruins. There are no reliable figures to be nad as to the loss of life.

The city has been placed under mar tial law and looters will be summa rily dealt with. Every church in the city has been damaged,: though Christ, Church. and St. Francis Street Baptist Church suf fered more than the others. Mobile's shipping suffered severely. . Many of her river boats are beached or sunk, all complete wrecks. Her docks and those of private corpora tions are destroyed. The revenue cutter Alert has gone down in Mobile River.. .

Many women were taken from second story windows and carried to safety in boats. The estimated property dam age is $3,000,000. 'Every house in Pensacola suffered damage and many : roofs were blown off. The water front is strewn with wreckage f or miles on either side of the city, ana vessels are piled on the wharvesor - here the wharves once were.
